Buried in my garden Along with my tears Memories of kisses Followed by the dark years Walk inside my grey skies Place my black robe upon your shoulders Weep for the angel who never was Wilted flowers now eaten by doves Clouds hide the searing pain Destiny mocks me, such disdain Rain drops fall on my heartless soul Happiness was lost, so very long ago

Come bury it in my garden instead, and then we'll frind new happiness growing there while we sit enjoying sunshine and company, together.
